Very clever, and funny, not the first B Flat joke I've seen but perfect in this instance. Good title, and powerful picture, the silhouette works well.
A worthy second place winner. Well Done

Good comparison considering a duet with a dead person and the musical comparison with the B-flat (I considered it as a comparison with the least value, at least musically thinking. Picture with silhouettes like those reflects a great vision.

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is hilarious. And the piano player in me loved that grand piano and thought the piece was well orchestrated (lol). The metaphor in "you'll just B-flat" was very clever. He'll certainly be flat when six feet under (lol). And the name you gave it was very cool. Liked your creativity and the choice of an artwork. Your rendition certainly wasn't off-key (smile).

Thanks for joining.

    Hey, Y, hello. Thank you so much for the outstanding review and giant sixer. My mother played piano all my life and I can plink a little bit on it. My instrument of choice is the guitar though. I tried getting the 'witty' aspect of the contest in there. I had fun with it. Thank you for creating the contest. Hopefully you'll get more takers to join in. The picture was actually 2 different pics, the singer and the casket. But I used my art program to combine them. I dearly appreciate the gracious rating, Y. I'm glad you liked my little offering. Have yourself a wonderful day.

I think this could have been a puntastic contest entry too, your last line was a musical pun. Very nice job. Good luck in the contest. Stay safe and stay healthy.

I think this is a good entry for the 5-7-5 Epitaph for a Rival contest.
This short verse tells of betrayal.
Nicely done and I wish you good luck with the contest.
